Local Actors Need for LCCC's Production of "Eurydice"

 

Lorain County Community College is looking for actors to audition for
the fall 2012 theatre production, "Eurydice," by contemporary American
playwright Sarah Ruhl.

 

Auditions will be held from 7-10 p.m., Tuesday, September 18 and
Thursday, September 20 in the Studio Theatre of the Stocker Arts Center
on the LCCC campus.

 

LCCC students and community members are invited to audition. The show
will be directed by Terence Cranendonk and will be performed
Thursday-Saturday, November 15-17 at Stocker Arts Center. Rehearsal will
begin Sunday, September 30. 

 

Ruhl's "Eurydice" retells the myth of Orpheus from the perspective of
Eurydice, his wife. The story focuses on Eurydice's choice to return to
earth with Orpheus or to stay in Hades with her father.

 

Those auditioning must prepare: 

 

1) A two-minute "mini-performance" that includes both spoken text and a
creative use of objects. The text can come from a play, serious or
comic, but you can also use non-dramatic texts from poems, novels,
non-fiction, etc. The text can be from any time period and in any style.
The object or objects you use can be anything, from a wooden spoon to a
bass trombone. Look for interesting and creative ways you can integrate
them with your text and action-the sky's the limit.

 

2) A one-minute song. You can sing the song a cappella, or if you play
an instrument, please accompany yourself on the instrument you play. You
may also be asked to read selections from the script and to improvise
with other members of your audition group. 

 

Please be prepared to write down schedule conflicts so that a final
rehearsal schedule may be created.

 

To make an appointment for an audition day, please call Jeremy Benjamin,
interim director of theatre, at (440) 366-7120. There will be no
reserved time slots, so be prepared to stay for the entire block of
time.
